They are just fast with sports car like handling. I drove an old Turbo and love its car like character but I can't get my head wrapped around the repair bills and the potential troubles it brings down the road compared to all of my trouble free Toyotas over the years. |
I've had a lot of SUVs and my Macan S was fantastic. It was plush, comfy and quiet, but felt more Mercedes like. I had that at the same time as my Alfa, and the Alfa was a much better enthusiast driver. It drove light and nimble, very tossable and the little 4 banger really got up there quickly. I felt the motor was underrated as it did 0-60 in about 5 flat or less.
Toyotas are great for longevity, but as far as driving experience, they leave a lot to be desired. My Tacoma is great for hauling and is very dependable, just not a really enjoyable vehicle to drive. I did add a couploe mods to help the driveability. A Sprint Booster and an intake and they really woke up the engine.
